Surfing Time–Motion Characteristics Possible to Gain Using Global Navigation Satellite Systems: A Systematic Review [PDF]

open access: yesSensors
The popularity of surfing has increased exponentially, reaching its recent debut in the Olympic Games. However, surfing suffers from a relative immature technological market, while in other sports some technologies such as global navigation satellite ...

Modeling and time domain simulation of surf-riding for water-jet propelled ships

open access: yesZhongguo Jianchuan Yanjiu, 2021
ObjectivesSurf-riding/broaching is one of the five stability failure modes included in the second generation intact stability criteria by IMO. The current regulation is limited by only applying to ships using propellers. To address this issue, this paper

Real-time ship stability evaluation program through deterministic method based on second-generation intact stability

open access: yesInternational Journal of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering, 2023
IMO suggests Second-Generation Intact Stability Criterion (SGISC), which consists of five failure modes, because of continuous accidents due to a lack of ship stability.

An Investigation about Stability in Waves of Large Pleasure Yachts

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
The IMO’s second-generation intact stability criteria (SGISc) have been applied to a set of seven megayacht units ranging from 40 m to 80 m. The application aims to evaluate their stability performance in a seaway.

Surfing on Fitness Landscapes: A Boost on Optimization by Fourier Surrogate Modeling

open access: yesEntropy, 2020
Surfing in rough waters is not always as fun as wave riding the “big one”. Similarly, in optimization problems, fitness landscapes with a huge number of local optima make the search for the global optimum a hard and generally annoying game ...

Magnetars in the Metagalaxy: An Origin for Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays in the Nearby Universe [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
I show that the relativistic winds of newly born magnetars with khz initial spin rates, occurring in all normal galaxies, can accelerate ultrarelativistic light ions with an E^{-1} injection spectrum, steepening to E^{-2} at higher energies, with an ...

On the mitigation of surf-riding by adjusting center of buoyancy in design stage

open access: yesInternational Journal of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering, 2017
High-speed vessels are prone to the surf-riding in adverse quartering seas. The possibility of mitigating the surf-riding of the ITTC A2 fishing vessel in the design stage is investigated using the 6-DOF weakly non-linear model developed for surf-riding ...
